We are seeking a detail-oriented marketing reporting analyst to join our Marketing Analytics team. This person will serve as the reporting and data expert within the analytics function - responsible for the analysis and reporting of marketing performance data across all channels. You will produce reports, scope and support analyses, and build data visualizations that help our teams and clients understand how marketing is performing, providing the essential feedback loop that informs strategic recommendations. Working closely with senior analysts and cross-functional partners, you will scope reporting needs, source data from multiple platforms, and build clear, accurate views of consumer, campaign, and channel performance. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on turning messy data into clean, reliable insights, takes pride in accuracy and consistency, and wants to grow their technical skills within a collaborative team supporting a Fortune 100 automotive client.
MAJOR RESPONSIBILITIES:

- Report Distribution & Standardization: Ensure reports are delivered on schedule and in consistent formats. Help establish and maintain reporting standards, templates, and documentation that enable the team to scale its reporting output.
- Cross-Functional Learning: Work with partners across VML/WPP to learn available data environments, train within these systems, and expand the team's access to new data sources.
- Measurement Support: Collaborate with senior team members to scope analyses, take direction on methodology, and contribute to the team's broader measurement and effectiveness work.

- Data Wrangling: Comfort working with messy, fragmented, or incomplete data. Ability to navigate across multiple data sources and stakeholders to piece together what's needed to deliver accurate reports.
- Coding: Experience writing code in SQL, Python, or R in working with data. There is an expectation to develop and grow this skillset after hire through on-the-job learning and team support.
- AI: Hands-on experience using AI to augment your data work. Major plus if you have some exposure in using tools like Claude Code to scale your analysis workflows.
- Attention to Detail: Strong commitment to data accuracy, consistency, and quality. You double-check your numbers and take pride in delivering reports that people can trust.
